Akagi Yahiru

"My memories are in the future. I don't know who I used to be, but I know who I will be. I am the 13.5th Generation of Yokoyama Yui!"

- Yui's first introduction as successor

Akane Kashita  is a member of AKB0048's Team K and one of AKB0048's current successors. She's known as Yui Yokoyama the 13.5th (13.5 ).

Yui is also known as Yuihan (ゆいはん), AkaYui (あかゆい) and Miyaunt (ミイアウント). Yui is a calm girl who has lost all her memories about herself. She isn't related by blood with Miyagi but adopted into her family by her grandmother.

Appearance
Yui has long, red hair. Her preferd hairstyle is a single ponytail. She's almost never seen with another hair style, even while sleeping. The hair in her ponytail is a bit wavy. Yui's eyes are in a wine red hue. Like other members of AKB0048, Yui has got heart-shaped light reflections in her eyes and on her hair. She has got those reflections as far as she remembers. Her skin is pale. She wears glasses to read.

Yui's commonly seen in sophiastic clothes, even more after becoming friends with Paruru. Even though her favourite colours are red and magenta, she doesn't wear them constant. She's also wearing green very often. Yui likes traditional japanese clothing very much but doesn't wear them in her daily life.

Personality
Yui is a rather calm and collected person. She's not saying much and stays in the background. However, she tries to help others as good as she can. She also makes plans before doing something as she loves strategy games and chess, just like random and trivial facts in general. She's a bad louser though and doesn't like being wrong. Yui worries about several things and usually has problems with talking about those. She tends to only think about those and not do anything. She is a polite person, althrough not as polite as Alisa.

Yui doesn't tell much about herself when meeting someone for the first time. This comes from the fact that she prefers others to speak but also from the fact that she doesn't have much to tell. She's often seen wondering who she actually is as she worries about this a bit. She loves to read Sci-Fi novels and those influence her thoughts too. This is the reason why some of her theories are quite weird and awkward. Despite considering Sci-Fi as her favorite genre, she reads all kinds of books.

History
Yui's past is a mystery. One day, she was found unconsious on a little meadow on Tekistar by Kashita Shouta, Miyagi's little brother. When Shouta found her, she didn't know anything. She believed that humanity lived on earth. Shouta brought her to his family that later adopted her. Soon, Yui learned about the current world. Yui didn't remember anything about herself though. After seeing 0048's lives, she noticed that the group was connected to one of the few things, she rememberd: certain songs. 0048's song. She didn't remember all, but a few, for example Aitakatta. She decided to audition because she didn't want to be a burden to her new family and because she hoped to learn more about herself.
